Growing up we always knew Kennedy and Kenneth were destined to become Engineers. They always invented things. A short Thread cc @kenniekays @KanguruKenneth
Back in the early 2000 they designed a makeshift television made from cardboard boxes and they started filming from it. Other kids from around the hood came to view it
Surpringly the boys pulled a crowd and they thought of making money from this inventory so they opened a movie house. Yes, a whole Ster Kinekor movie house in their yard! 😂😂. We then made our business plan and i was going to be collecting the gate takings with @dennischalala
on the official opening, all the tickets were sold out at the price of $0.20c each (by then it bought bread eggs and milk). Chalala and i had now collected all the money at the gate and "The Movie" was now about to start. The time was 18:00hrs in the evening.
Plenty of kids of our same age group had now gathered in the cinema waiting for the Engineers to start playing their long awaited movie. Something technically went wrong with their cardboard television system and it could not play 🙆🏽‍♂️🙆🏽‍♂️
There was commotion and everyone was demanding their money back. The twins were now working flat out backstage to fix the technical problem while me and Chalala calmed the viewers down. Things got heated and we ran away with all the money.
There was no way we were gonna give it back. Hatidzosere marasha kuHwange! So a huge mob of kids ran after us at full speed but non could catch us. They then went back to the cinema to confront the twins for a refund. Fortunately the Engineers had fixed their television system
Everyone then walked in back to the cinema, sat down quietly, and started enjoying "The Movie" which had been made by the two Engineers. Chalala and me later returned to the cinema then sat down and started enjoying the amazing piece of work with my colleagues.
Years down the line my guys are now both qualified Engineers as they were destined to be.
27 years later and we're still friends and I have always learnt to support each other and with it we are achieving our dreams. The End. 🔚
